Are you ready to go on a little bit of an adventure?
Well here at Globetrot Trivia, we’re all going to take a bit of a trivial tour around the planet, stopping off at a number of points of interest and learning a bit more along the way!
For this challenge, a destination will be posted here. Sometimes that destination will be very specific and sometimes it will be very vague, but either way, we’ll need to have two quizzes queued up before we move on to the next location.
Let’s take a hypothetical here. Let’s say our current location is ‘The Great Pyramids of Egypt’. This means we need to queue two quizzes— anyone can submit them— before we continue on. The quizzes can be about they pyramids…or pyramids in general…or Egyptian landmarks…or the 7 Wonders…or mummies…or camels. As long as you can justifiably link the quiz to the locations, it’s good!
Once we make our trip around the world, we’ll return to our starting location.
All you need to do is post when your quiz is submitted, and when there’s two we’ll move along. :)
Join me, won’t you? Let’s see the world!

That's the thing about work - they keep expecting you to do it if you want to get paid. Weekend's nearly here, and I will try to get caught up, if the heat drops enough for me to think. Reply #83. Jan 18 18, 9:23 PM |

I'm queued too. Off to Rome! The next destination takes us back over the Mediterranean to the Italian capital of Rome! While we could easily talk at length about the city itself, we're honing in on the Colosseum, one of Rome's most famous landmarks, and your quiz should be inspired by this structure, its gladiatorial history, and its place in the world. This first century structure is the focal point for this stop on our world tour. Reply #85. Jan 19 18, 4:36 PM |

I'm going to give up on my Tunisian idea for now, I think. So far I have written the title... I might come back to it later. Reply #90. Jan 21 18, 8:39 AM |

My Notre-Dame-related quiz has just been submitted (later than I expected, due to a few hectic days during the past week), Now I need to think seriously about something Rome-related, as the Eternal City happens to be my hometown! I already have an idea, but need to work on it. Reply #92. Jan 21 18, 2:32 PM |

I have started writing a match quiz about cities of Roman origin and their former names. Hope there is enough of a connection with the Colosseum! Reply #94. Jan 23 18, 3:23 PM |

I think it might be close enough. :) Hoping to finally get the chance to dig a bit more into mine tomorrow. I stalled out at two questions when real life picked up a little bit. I don't want to fall behind. Reply #95. Jan 23 18, 8:33 PM |

The next destination is more than a stone's throw away. We're going from one continent to another as we fly to Delhi, India and take a trip into Agra to visit the Taj Mahal! Considered one of the New7Wonders, this immense mausoleum is a symbol of India and one of its most famous landmarks. Built of white marble, the site is in the state of Uttar Pradesh, one of the most densely populated in the world, and it's the starting point for your next quiz. Reply #98. Jan 26 18, 3:45 PM |
